Do a private or custom tour this was a waste
Rebecca_K
, Jul 2022
There was only some audio information about the bridges- nothing else. Such a missed opportunity to talk about the cities of Porto and Gaia, the history, waterway, things we could see on the shore. Also one of the information segments on a bridge repeated itself so we only heard about 5 of the bridges not 6. Also the crew played loud pop music which took away from the experience. This could have been so much better than it was. Disappointing.

Leisurely Ride to see the Bridges
Christine_W
, Jun 2022
Lovely ride down & back — we knew it would be short so that wasn’t a problem. Best part was my conversation with the ticket voucher operator. We got talking about Porto and she enthusiastically recommended a side trip and wrote a short note. A memorable moment.

Wrong Boat??

Booking did not provide sufficient check in location information. The only check in desk we saw checked us in and put us on a larger crowded boat which we now suspect was operated by another vender.

Don't trust Viator - does not book your spot
Eleonora_D
, May 2022
This is a scam. We booked with Viator but could not figure out where exactly the boat service was located as it said Porto Ribeira, but there are many boat services there. We asked a couple of these, they looked at our Viator tickets and explained that Viator DOES NOT BOOK your ticket at a specific time and date with any of these cruise services. It is just a voucher that you can claim with any of them, but you it entirely depends on their availability. So in our case we went there 30min before the departure time and still couldn't got in at the scheduled time, because our so called "Viator booking" did not reserve us a spot. One of these cruise lines reserved us one for a hour later. We didn't have to pay as the Viator booking works as a voucher but extremely disappointed that we hat to wait and the info on Viator was not clear.

Ticket booked for noon....
Maxime_S
, May 2022
Ticket booked for noon. As per instructions, got there 20 minutes before to be told by rude employee that the boat was full already. Told me it was an open ticket which is clearly not what's advertised. Didn't offer a solution and told me to get in touch with the operator. Still waiting for them to reply to get a refund. Ended up with the competitor across the river who were way more polite and ended up on their boat 15 minutes later. I'd recommend crossing the bridge and take the Vila de Gaia tourist info ticket instead, if you really want to do this tour. However, it's little boring, you won't see much more than what you can see already.

The views and bridges....
Kate_b
, May 2022
The views and bridges. I arrived with my Viator ticket in my wallet . The girl at the ticket booth said she be bar code could not be read by her monitor. She asked to see the email confirmation . I showed her . That wasn’t food enough. She called you and argued that your barcode wasn’t what they wanted . She eventually printed me a ticket after many minutes . Then our boat had motor problems and we were towed back to shore and got on a second boat . I was on the water due 2 hours !

Mirraine_G

The boat trip was nice, the audio guide was in English, Portugese and Spanish. However it was a bit low in sound so at times you could not hear well due to winds and other people talking. But overall it was a good trip.

Peter_D

The guide was pleasant but had a quiet voice so it was really hard to hear him over the noise of traffic. It would have been helpful if he had a microphone. Also, the design of the Tuk Tuk wasn’t great. The seat closest to the guide had no leg room and the canopy made it hard to see.

Very nice boat trip which allows to see a lot of interesting buildings and monuments as well as all Porto's bridges. The only issue is that place where boat departures is very poorly marked, so it took a lot of time to find it.
